Time for a scrum penalty and a yellow card

All from Tangitau's brilliant 50-22

What are this Aussie group up to

That was fine. Was worth a look. Try stands.

@KiwiMurph not sure it was worth a look IMO.

I do wonder if Lennox is on the radar for higher honours

'Hybrid'

Tahs insistence on playing Jorgensen at fullback is really fucking weird

@Landers92 said in Highlanders v Waratahs:

An all Australian referee group. ref, touchies and TMO. Niiiiice. How do they decide that

They've done a good job so far tbf

Tahs are an enigma. On paper they shouldn't be this poor.

Awful option from Lennox there

I wouldn't complain if he bolted in over Ratima or Christie

Well 40mins of largely non-dipshit rugby from the highlanders for a v v long time

He's not dissimilar to Roigard in his game style

Looked like a ruck had formed?

Lennox to me is an ok halfback and an ok outside back. Shouldn't be enough.

Yep and it was a second go too.

Dropkick Murphy just making shit up and ignoring blatant shit to harm the landers

Just the TT card should have seen him yoinked immediately. Even if you imagine TT didn't do everything spot on, it was just a bog standard ruck! They weren't going to even come close to scoring.

@SouthernMann I would be up watching the early kicks off against URC teams if a true southern man like Lennox was involved

Anyway, where the fuck did the brilliant attacking structure in the first 20 come from and where the fuck did it go?

Really stokdd that a simplified lineout has worked well

How do we muff that. Lennox loses the plot a bit when breaks are made.

His brain explosion to box kick the ball away at the end of the half annoyed me enough

TT has made some terrible defensive reads in the past few weeks

32yo on debut! That's awesome

Take the 3!

Really? Looked like a blatant knock on this time Dropkick

Good tmo work

Oscar Haig?

Might be time to see Fakatava

Over excited mistakes and decisions from Lennox are doing my head in, especially when everything else is really good.

@Landers92 said in Highlanders v Waratahs:

Just hope he keeps the momentum up and doesn't dither.

@Bones agreed. Everything is 100 miles an hour. Doesn’t hurt to slow things down every now and then

@Bones good player but doesn’t come across as particularly bright, which is not what you need from a 9

EdG has really upped the physicality in contact this year, as well as work rate. Awesome to see

@Bones noticeably looks trimmer

Did Gamble go at Lavinini's eyes?

That was the definition of handbags

Totally on purpose with his thumb

Should stay yellow.
